SN 90 8x2
CJ 120 10x1
BP 90 3x8 figured I'd start to bench slowly again once a week.
Hi. Making a log to keep track of my long-term progress. Started training olympic weightlifting seriously recently, learning by myself.
Current stats:
Age: 27, Weight: 102kg, Height: 1.81cm
Recent PRs:
Press: 87kgx5, 100kgx1
Bench: 123kgx5 but stopped training it for now
Squat: 234kgx5
Deadlift: 262.5kgx5
Snatch: 105kg
Clean and Jerk: 145kg
I'm running the TM/OLY hybrid from PP with some modifications.
To start, my squat from yesterday's training session:
SN 90 8x2
CJ 120 10x1
BP 90 3x8 figured I'd start to bench slowly again once a week.
Poor start to my log -- gyms are being ordered to close here. Hopefully I can find somewhere to train, but doesn't look likely. Too bad people are being so crazy with the current situation.
Found somewhere to train, at least for now. Not sure about doing any olympic lifting though. I've been sick, lost some bodyweight, new gym with different equipment -- so, as always -- time to LP back up!
SQ 200x5
DL 250x1
PR 70 3x5 (have to clean the bar into position now)
Starting my log back up -- no guarantees I'll keep it going, but I've been doing an awful job at even writing down my workouts and just have it all in my head which isn't ideal so hopefully I can stick with it.
Today:
SQ 242.5kgx3
PR 83 x 5,3,3,3,5 (messed up reps because trying to figure out the double layback, and would just mess up some of the sets).
DL 280x1 (PR for fun. Didn't want to do a heavy 5 rep set because I had done so 5 days ago already)
all lifts from this workout are here: youtube
Your tenacity despite the set backs is very admirable. You have a very bright future. I'm on the other end of the age scale but I find lifting very satisfying. I will attempt to keep up with your progress.
Thank you -- but I enjoy lifting and have done it for so many years that it doesn't really take any tenacity, just something I'm used to doing.
Today:
SN:
100x1
105x0, 1
110x1
115x0, 0
CJ:
130x1
140x1
150x0, 0
Standard shitty oly workout with no PRs. Happens all the time. My left shoulder is a little fucked up. It's internally rotated, hurts and is weaker than the right. Hence I cannot bench with a regular grip. You can see it collapse on this failed snatch:
It does get stronger though... I just have to focus really hard on the snatch and jerk to prevent the collapse. I am quite happy with how my flexibility is progressing though.

Random oly stuff today -- just fucked around.
light snatches
C&J up to 140
Front squat up to 190. Failed 200. I'll try it again once my lowbar gets to like 260x3. I still don't see a reason to train the front squat.
SN 95 x 2 x 8 (2min rests)
CJ 125 x 1 + 2 x 5 (2min rests)
